Emmerschans

[edit]

Dear Wikipedians,

In the description of Emmen the suburb of Emmerschans is missing and thus making the article incomplete. However, it's ironic that the earthwork of "Broken Circle/Spiral Hill" is mentioned which is located in Emmerschans. So this should be rectified since there is also an article on the Dutch Wikipedia site about this suburb, see https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmerschans_(wijk). Emmerschans became in 1902 an inhabited village within the municipality of Emmen. Since the 1970s, Emmerschans went from an independent village to a suburb of the town of Emmen. It has notable sites such as: 1. The defense settlement of The Schans which originated the name of Emmerschans from, see https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmerschans_(verdedigingswerk) 2. The nature reserve/forest of the Emmerdennen, which is landscaped forest and had the goal of containing the drifting of sand and making the peat area suitable for agriculture, housing and possible flooding of the surrounding area. To this day there is still a drifting sand area in the Emmerdennen forest called Haantjebak containing Haantjeduin, the highest natural point in Drenthe, about 27 - 30 meter above the Amsterdam Ordnance Datum (NAP), see https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haantjeduin and https://www.drenthe.nl/locaties/2490474998/haantjeduin. 3. A former landfill on the Schansstraat turned into a recreational area/nature reserve, which is one of the highest artificial hills (about 48 meters) in Drenthe and called the wall of Emmen (Dutch: De muur van Emmen). This is often used by cyclers due to the significant incline, see https://www.drenthe.nl/locaties/521297610/muur-van-emmen 4. EHS '85 the local football club of Emmerschans and Emmerhout, see https://www.ehs85.nl/ 5. A former sand mining and sewage overflow lake turned into a recreational park called "Zandgat van Jansen", see https://www.wijkbelangenemmerhout.nl/wijkbelangen/h/1962/0/6355/Historie-Emmerhout/Vroeger---Nu---Het-gat-van-Jansen 6. Adjacent to the earthwork is an former sand mining lake called "Zandgat de Boer" which has a deep blue colour but isn't suited for recreational use due to quick sand, the depth of the lake and the instability of the retaining walls, see https://www.rtvdrenthe.nl/nieuws/13543280/nog-weinig-schot-in-plan-voor-boswonen-bij-emmen 7. Local Roman-Catholic Parish/Church, named H. Franciscus kerk, see https://www.degoedeherderparochie.nl/

Other notable event where in 2002 when the residents celebrated the 100th anniversary of Emmerschans. Followed by the release of a book which depict this century of existence, see https://www.werkmanuitgeverij.nl/uploads/pages/emmerschans_100_jaar.html. In 2003 Emmerschand was mainly in the national news and making headlines due to the gruesome rape and murder of the then 79 year old Johanna Maria van Offeren, locally know as "Het Wandelvrouwtje" by Erik W. who disposed the body in The Emmerdennen near the Parochieweg, see https://www.rtvdrenthe.nl/nieuws/16047286/tbs-moordenaar-wandelvrouwtje-uit-emmen-met-twee-jaar-verlengd
